Criterions and LogicNets Partner to Deliver AUC Solution
LogicNets and Criterions have joined forces to provide a solution for you to meet the AUC validation requirements under PAMA. The LogicNets AUC Solution is a cloud service that lets you easily confirm that an advanced imaging order for Medicare/Medicaid patients is appropriate based on your patient scenario. When done, it generates the new reimbursement codes CMS now requires with your imaging orders.
We recommend that you acquire the LogicNets secure online service to meet the CMS requirement. We are preparing upcoming versions of our software to directly integrate with the AUC Solution. In the meantime, you can use LogicNets’ standalone AUC Validation Portal to easily generate the validation information and copy it into the ordering workflow.
The Solution: Appropriate Use Criteria (AUC) for Advanced Imaging
Why AUC is a Requirement?
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) currently require all providers to use a Clinical Decision Support Mechanism (“CDSM”) to electronically validate advanced imaging orders using approved online guidelines. On January 1, 2022 imaging centers will not be reimbursed for orders that do not include this information and so it is vital that ordering physicians be able to perform the validation without impacting their workflow.
About the LogicNets AUC Solution
The LogicNets AUC Solution is an affordable and secure online service for rapidly evaluating a patient scenario and either validating that an order is appropriate or recommending appropriate alternatives. The solution draws on CMS-qualified guidelines developed by Intermountain Healthcare. It can run in the background when integrated with an EHR and automatically switches to an interactive visual mode to collect clinical information from you to complete the validation. The solution provides a unique visual diagnostic pathways view of the guidance, making it easy for you to indicate key factors and be aware of and evaluate alternative approaches if necessary. The LogicNets standalone portal, which can be accessed separately from the patient record, provides an easy and efficient means of indicating a service to be ordered and then validating appropriateness. For your most common procedures, it provides “top scenario” shortcuts to complete validation in two clicks. It also enables electronic collaboration where ordering physicians, their proxies, and furnishing staff can all have access to the portal to setup validations and indicate acceptance without email or faxes.
